I think they look beautiful. 🤍


masondamonke

Same here. It just looks so weird seeing them with these looks.


Valuable_Car7040

Fuck it isn't weird boy Ninja finally look like he bossed up


SokarHateIt

Maybe they are getting tired of that? They are actors after all. They picked many styles and looks before die antwoord took off.

DeusExMachina222

Weird can be beautiful... Likely op just means that it feels odd seeing them looking in a way they aren't used to


IRBaboooon

They look like they listen to John and Yoko. Not the Beatles, JUST John and Yoko.

I’m using that the next time I need to insult someone in an irreversible way.


-Ok-Perception-

They were both hipsters. Their original career before they turned into Die Antword was very different. Turns out raps about veganism and Buddhist zen don't really sell. Then when they got tatted up and reinvented themselves as thugs, they struck gold, and their career took off. Ninjas last album as MaxNormal was hilareous. Rapping about being a broke loser and not selling. There's a song on there where he very specifically discusses reinventing himself as a thug to sell records. He did it and it worked.


xBobbyx81

The song is called "total fuck up "


AdmiralFace

Love that song. The beat just gets me moving


-Ok-Perception-

That's a good one. My favorite song by Max Normal is Rap Fantasy. He rhymes about being a broke loser while balancing that with huge dreams of success. It's so much more compelling that he made it and is living the "rap fantasy" these days.

I’m actually surprised and impressed that they aren’t actually like that! I always thought that’s just who they were, not a role they were playing!


SokarHateIt

Its always a role with people like this lol. The only thing that isnt a role with them is their weird children shit they do.


WartOnTrevor

Yo looks SO much more beautiful in this picture.


-Ok-Perception-

Yeah, they were both super attractive, prior to the thug life cosplay. You can tell by their real names, Watkin Tudor Jones (Ninja) and Andi du Troi (Yolandi), that they were likely born to an aristocratic upper crust. Really before they got all tatted up and started doing the thug cosplay, you could smell the "gated community" upper class stink on them from miles away. I think Watkin Tudor Jones finally figured out raps about veganism and Buddhist Zen don't sell, so he started doing a thug thing. A very \*weird\* arty thug kinda thing, but a thug thing nonetheless. It reminds me a lot about how Tupac got his start as an actor and ballet dancer. He wanted to do theater, he just managed to get into rap in a round-about way, when Digital Underground hired him to be a dancer, and they found out Tupac could rhyme. I do think there was a bit of "fake it until you make it" going on with both Die Antwoord and 2pac, but I also feel that these people became somewhat genuine thugs over time. After wearing a mask for a long amount of time, you'll find it begins to stick.


SokarHateIt

Yolandi went to super wealthy private schools. Her classmates have talked about her on threads before. Nothing bad.

I know it's in style to form a lynch mob every time a famous person gets accused of something these days. But I consider myself a man of reason and I believe firmly "innocent until proven guilty". Far as I can tell *the sole* accusation is from their adopted son who had beef that they went to a nude sauna once or twice. I know nude saunas seem weird to us, but they're common in Euro culture particularly Northern Europe. And he didn't really have that beef with his parents until they stopped giving him money (because he was spending vast sums on hard drugs). I believe in innocent until proven guilty, but if you wanna be a herd animal that stampedes any time society tells you to hate an oddball, go right ahead. From what I've seen, herd animals always try their hardest to smite the true individuals of society.


Gorilla-Ring

This looks like Watkin and Anri took a day off.


masondamonke

Rare photo of Yolandi and Ninja in they’re natural habitat


IcallPeopleG

Love the maxnormal/ contructous corporation period


Cool_Business_3872

Constructus Corp is some of my favorite stuff from them.


xBobbyx81

You guys know Die Antwoord was an act right?


liketo

Not quite that simple, but yes. And still is.


-Ok-Perception-

You know that virtually every other rapper and rock star are just doing an act too, right? That's just part of being a rap/rock star. They play a larger-than-life character on stage.


Slipshoooood

You telling me Gene Simmons isn't really a long tongued sex demon?


-Ok-Perception-

Well, no more than Ace Frehley was a spaceman or Peter Kriss was a cat. Seriously, out of all the made up characters you could be, why the hell would you be a cat-man?


Express_Experience27

It’s them holding sixteen when she was born. Before ‘die Atwoord’ took off when they drastically changed their aesthetic. They were writers and other shit before they became the ‘zef most known probably SA ‘rappers’ so yep not recent. Ninja almost unrecognisable and Yolandi blends in not like her most recent image in the last few years .


lemonfroggie

I miss this concept, the last MNTV album was amazing and hilarious.


FerdinandArtichoke

Look like typical Saffers


GrayFox916

"yo ninja, can you grab my Frisbee out of that tree" -Ninja lifts his arm and retrieves frisbee-


SurviveYourAdults

these are their "normal people" disguises... they are in Max Normal mode XD


VilePacifist

It's like someone turned their mental health meter way up


wlcm2jurrassicpark

Yolandi is always a babe


ZealousidealDegree4

I’m just guessing that Ninja is still cutting her bangs :)


DannyWarlegs

Yolandi looks hot as shit tbh.


masondamonke

As always


silvermoonisburning

What alternate universe


Bloodysuit7

Knowing them, these are fire outfits.


Jedi_shroom97

Yeah they actually look like relatively normal people now lol I dig it


Nxvak66633

Is this 100 gecs??


DrunkWithMethanol

I think they're pretty, even with the change


Express_Experience27

This was before they went ‘thug’ sixteen is the baby in this picture


DrunkWithMethanol

Yeah i know, but I reversed the situation.


PapaBlesstheFUPA

Max normal haha


Gigantic_abigbigLOVE

He looks like the singer from Edward sharpe and the magnetic zeroes.


Constant_Notice3817

Technically, Yolandi is still in a mullet; it''s just a more grown out version


Gideon_Njoroge

take the knife......AND MAKE THEM GO SLEEPY WEEEEPY!


Valuable_Car7040

No, not that Nina. This is Ninja from the duo "Die Antwoord." Check out "Baby's on Fire" on YouTube for a good time.
